This won't have any effect on the number of votes the Dem nominees in NH get 11/5/2024, and no effect on the general election result. Also, no Democrat nationwide cares about some other state than NH being FITN

Almost like some of them do have the interests of the state in mind and not just the party. FITN has its benefits for the state.

The hospitality industry gets a big boost from all of the staffers and media needing hotel rooms for months on end. Not to mention, all of the money that WMUR and the radio stations across the state take in from the campaign ads.

I'd be interested in a study on the economic impact of the FITN primary.

They're going to do the primary as usual here, regardless of whether or not the delegates get penalized for not listening to the national party. The momentum of candidates is what's important (supposedly).

In 2020, there were 24 delegates up for grabs in NH, and there were 3979 total. Those 24 "not counting" doesn't really matter.

It's time to let it go.

I keep trying to figure out why this even matters and so far I’ve got nothing. Like seriously, besides feeling special, doesn’t matter at all in the outcome of the election if we go first?

Also, staging, AV, professional photographers and videographers, and the colleges that benefit from enrollment from the political access FITN offers.

Wow!! I’m honestly surprised.

> FITN has its benefits for the state.

Certainly.

With that said, am I supposed to support NH being first every year...."because we said so"? I don't really see why we should be perpetually special even if it is beneficial to the state.

Something can be good for the state and also not really make any sense in terms of fairness.

NH politicians overestimate how much the general population cares about the FITN primary.

But NH isn't going to move its primary. SC and GA aren't going to move theirs either. They would all require Republicans doing the bidding of the DNC. And I'm not sure why the DNC thinks holding delegates hostage is going to convince Sununu to change the law.

If the DNC really wants to move NH back in the schedule it's going to require some real threats, and possibly also the cooperation of the RNC.

Nope, just something people worry about when they don't have anything worth worrying about.

It's so politicians can make empty promises in NH before they make empty promises in other states.

This sounds like democrats perpetuating white supremacy!

LOL! What a shit show.

Doesn't matter. Scanlan calls the ball...

What democrats DO with the primary result will be what's most interesting...

Biden screwing NH yet again — how can anyone support this geriatric

I know it hard to believe but the RNC the Republican nor the state get to tell the DNC how to run there primary. Not that I am surprised they will try. Personal I think this just show how the 2 parties can't work together even on basic fundamentals problems.

Short answer? Yes.

Biden’s just mad he lost here at FITN and is being a petty brat about it.

I mean, that's an opinion I suppose.

Given that there's 49 other states, I'm not seeing why they'd agree that NH deserves to be the most important in perpetuity.

At best I've got "NH is a swing state"...but that'd still suggest it should rotate at least a bit between a few swing states. Or that a bunch of them should be on the same day.

Of course. After all you are a special snowflake.

Or maybe they want to have a state that at least vaguely resembles the us population…

Because they are smarter than people that support the GOP.

what? Biden is a crooked geriatric who has been stealing from and lying to taxpayers for 48 years in public office — there’s no defending such a toxic, racist, thief

Sure thing there lil’buddy. And just think that’s just what you the blind man has found on the laptopz… just wait until you clear out the underground submarine tunnels!

funny you call those who see right through crooked Biden “blind” — are you tired from all the mental gymnastics to explain away all his blunders and misdeeds?

The computer repair shop guy was legally blind. I guess you guys just never get the facts. Like ever. Pretty wild that you all still have heedless opinions. But what else could you have I suppose…

I’m an independent— I don’t care if the repair guy was blind, I’m not talking about Hunter Biden, I’m talking about Joe Biden. Joe has been corrupt for 48 years, Hunter is junior varsity corrupt compared to the big guy.

How do you gather that from a three word answer? Get a life. 😂

Sure thing. I’m don’t doubt that you believe what you have been told.

does take much research, Biden has hundreds of videos where he says something so distasteful, racist, or corrupt/crony. just open your eyes, it’s not hard.

The primary is run by the state. The SoS will schedule the primary according to law, not according to the preferences of one party. Sununu is a Republican and isn’t going to sign a law because the DNC asks him to. And fwiw a Democratic governor probably wouldn’t either.

Yes, the NH primary is about attention not delegates. Unless the DNC threatens that there will be no change.

Found the trumpster

I mean... so did Obama, Dubya, and Clinton. Trump is the first FITN primary winner to go onto win the nomination and then the presidency since Bush in 1988. We aren't exactly sending our top choices to the White House... and the one time we did recently, look how that turned out lol...

nope, independent that sees Biden for who he is. 48 years of corruption.
